What exactly transpired ? He is an outstanding member of this forum. Whatever it is that happened, and I have no idea, I believe that he was not the instigator and that he was unfairly baited and targetted.

Ranker did not bring anything here, much less anything to do with [H]. He is an established member here, and may I dare say has a high post count. He's an expert at water cooling, and far more so than a lot of people, and has always been an esteemed member.
I wrote this thread to enquire what transpired. Other than that, it is meant as a series of questions and I have no need to justify it.
Ranker got banned? I've never seen him be unfair or have a negative attitude, despite the TN flaming. He was/is a great contributor to all things liquid cooling, can't see him doing anything to warrant a ban.
I didn't care for him, I think it's best he is gone if he really is.

wthwhat happened?????
why would you say that, RANKER has been a great person here, and was always helpful.
Nothing anymore
He has helped me out also
I'm sure that Ranker has a wealth of knowledge, and I haven't checked to see if he's been banned, but his posts regarding mixed metals amount to trolling. There's a difference between making a point and arguing for argument's sake.
Ranker needs to just learn to leave TN to being TN instead of trying to knock down a steel wall with his bare hands.
My take is that Ranker isnt the villian in that whole TN thing. Seemed to me TN was just spamming the boards with that AC is so great crap to justify her purchases and Ranker just called her on it. It went kind of downhill from there, but it seemed to me TN was dredging it back up all the time. I know she keeps baiting over on [H] with that nonsense. So what happened anyway, if anything?

So... what happened to warrant this thread again?

rankers not banned so close this damn thread
For the record I am not sick, nor am I a gamer, nor am I a sick gamer. That name just sounds really cool to me but dont put me under that stereotype at all.
nevermind... addicted to COD4 and Free Online Games baby!
As being one of the last that saw Ranker, and was involved in a thread they may have led to his ban.
I am saying based on my reading, that in a thread with no relation to Koolance (THIS IS NOT FLAME BAIT SO BITE YOUR TONGUE) that he and a few others arguing over KOOLANCE overtook an unrelated thread with the on going baiting and bantering that has been going on back and forth between those that are for KOOLANCE, and those against. Where RANKER was a very strong Anti KOOLANCE voice and others were very KOOLANCE PRO. (THANK ABORTION SUPPORTERS AND ANTI ABORTION SUPPORTERS taking over any avenue of media etc with disregard for the point of which others were speaking.
Any who I am not attacking anyone, saying anyone was right or wrong, well I think all parties were wrong for hijacking yet another thread and I let my thoughts be known. But I am thinking that given the recent rage of thread hijacking that Admins/Mods for tired of all parties and handed out vacations, and while I agree with some of which RANKER has said, and like him. We all have our breaking point and can only tolerate so much BS before we just let loose all hell to those they we see as thorns in our sides.
I think many would agree that a number of PRO KOOLANCER's have continuously provoked RANKER, not to say he is completely innocent as I am sure he has said things to only stoke the fires as well.
I am sure he will be back, but unfortunately so will the other side of the party...............and alas so the fireworks will continue again.
In the mean time I am sure others can communicate with him and let him kno whats up.
RANKER, if you read this, my intention was not to paint you as a bad guy, just to try to give others an idea of who, what, where and possibly when from my point of view.
He's just been restricted from the Watercooling forums, that is all. It's understandable after all the crap that went down with him versus TN, etc.

Regardless of any of what has happened or may have happened, this does not need to be an open forum discussion.
If someone feels they absolutely must know, then contact him, it is his place to inform, or not.
Dead Thread.
